Geometry and Spatial Sense Standard










1. Classify and describe two-dimensional and three-dimensional


geometric figures and objects by using their properties; e.g., interior

angle measures, perpendicular/parallel sides, congruent


angles/sides.

2. Use standard language to define geometric vocabulary: vertex, face,

altitude, diagonal, isosceles, equilateral, acute, obtuse and other


vocabulary as appropriate.

3. Use multiple classification criteria to classify triangles; e.g., right

scalene triangle.

4. Identify and define relationships between planes; i.e., parallel,


perpendicular and intersecting.

5. Predict and describe sizes, positions and orientations of


two-dimensional shapes after transformations such as reflections,


rotations, translations and dilations.

6. Draw similar figures that model proportional relationships; e.g.,


model similar figures with a 1 to 2 relationship by sketching two of

the same figure, one with corresponding sides twice the length of


the other.

Build three-dimensional objects with cubes, and sketch the


two-dimensional representations of each side; i.e., projection sets.
